Tropical gardens at Estate Tabor and Harmony
The Virgin Islands have a fascinating history. When European explorers landed here in the 17th century, they quickly made themselves at home, building hilltop defense forts later used by rum-sloshed pirates. Saint Thomas was a favorite haunt of the infamous English pirate Edward Teach, more commonly called Blackbeard, who used the island as a lookout and hideaway. The Phantasea Tropical Botanical Garden was opened in 2015 to much acclaim and is packed with tropical plants, including colorful rare orchids. Alternatively, you can swing by the St. Peter Greathouse Estate & Gardens for more exotic flora.

Winter paradise at Estate Tabor and Harmony
The Virgin Islands has long been the winter vacation spot of choice.

If you plan to visit over the festive season, try to nab your rental early to avoid disappointment. Those looking to save a few bucks should visit between April and June, when the sun is still shining before the tropical downpours, the temperature hovers around the balmy 80s and the vacation rentals have dropped their prices.
